PROJECT OVERVIEW: The iconic Markthal in Rotterdam. Supply of unique 0.4mm vertical slot PVC screen for the Aquifer Thermal Storage Energy system at Markthal, a 95,000m2 residential and commercial building with an indoor market hall.

Piper Environmental Group, Inc. has partnered with Primozone Production AB in Löddeköpinge, Sweden for our municipal, groundwater, and wastewater applications. Our successful installations since 2015 have made our choice an obvious one. Primozone’s applications are in 30 countries worldwide, with documented OPEX (Operating Expense) savings that are key for companies and utilities who truly believe in a low carbon footprint, sustainability, and reducing their operating costs in maintenance, electricity and oxygen consumption.

Measuring groundwater level or depth-to-water is critically important for identifying long term trends, including declining water levels, saltwater intrusion, seasonal variations, aquifer recharge, artificial aquifer storage and recovery, and level status for drinking water. Receiving groundwater data via remote data transmission from one of the many OTT telemetry options available saves time and resources spent in the field.

One of the greatest problems facing the planet is the management, conservation and equitable distribution of fresh water supplies. The fresh water sources may be lakes, rivers or ground water aquifers, most of which are now under stress.

PROJECT OVERVIEW: Large residential and commercial project in London, overlooking the Thames. A 2.9MW cooling and heating aquifer thermal energy storage system for five mixed-use buildings including over 200 luxury apartments.

Sites with soil contamination often are also subject to contamination of the groundwater. Groundwater contamination can be very complex and a thorough understanding of the geology of the aquifer and contaminant sources is critical in planning remediation efforts.

The reasons for testing water quality in groundwater are numerous. Monitoring water quality and conducting tests is a good way to gather data on aquifer hydraulics. It can also be used to monitor parameters such as rhodamine, which helps to understand movement of underground water. Human activities can have an impact on groundwater quality, and conducting tests in this field can help to track these effects. Leachate from landfill and fertiliser can both find their way into groundwater. It is important to monitor these pollutants and to test the quality of groundwater, as it helps to identify and mitigate potentially harmful conditions.

Ensuring safe drinking water is a complicated and resource intensive process involving stringent state and federal requirements. Failures in the system are not only costly but can pose serious threats to public health. Pumping tests provide needed data to ensure proper flow and aquifer levels. With DriveConnect technology in place it is possible to significantly minimize expensive lift station drawdown testing.

Nitrate is one of the most important parameters
in assessing surface and ground water quality.
Nitrates are naturally present in surface and
ground waters in low concentrations, but are
harmful to humans and livestock and cause aquatic
ecosystem degradation in high concentrations.
Nitrates enter the environment as human-induced
pollution from a variety of sources, but the largest
source is from agricultural fertilizer runoff . Other
sources include wastewater treatment discharge,
septic systems, and from pet waste. Nitrate is
highly soluble in water and therefore readily
leaches into water sources, whereas other human associated pollutants, such as phosphates and
ammonia, are not transported as easily. This ability to be quickly transported into ground and natural
waters such as drinking water wells, aquifers, reservoirs, lakes, and streams, coupled with its health
and environmental implications make nitrate pollution and monitoring of major concern.
